Why not? As long as only the map itself is copied and not the huge
amount of background information, you'll have to print on a good tourist
map. Anything you add, which is not based on OSM data, is your work and
you decide on how to license it.
Why should someone be able to make thousands of dollars with work, he
didn't create on his own? If you want to have the full copyright on your
work, then you'll have to pay a license for a commercial map or fetch
all data on your own.
